DESCENDANTS OF ABRAM SAILORS

by Jane A. Leavell

If these families interest you, you definitely need to contact Phyllis Hackleman for a copy of her book on the Hacklemans.

Never take anything on the Internet as a fact; consider it a good clue, and do the research to verify it. That goes for my stuff, too, because I am gullible.

Generation No. 1

1. ABRAM SAILORSwas born Abt. 1710 in Lucerne, Switzerland. He married CATHERINE SEYLERIA. She was born Abt. 1715.

Notes for ABRAM SAILORS:
The descendants claim that John Sailors, born ca. 1756, was 20 years younger than his sister Mary, born ca. 1736 in Germany. She married Michael Hechelman/Hackleman. Elijah Hackleman, a descendant, says siblings were Philip, Abram Jr., Leonard, Daniel, and several others whose names were no longer remembered, saying it was a "large family of children."

Abram is said to have come from Switzerland in 1737 to settle in Maryland. One source says he and his brothers landed at the Port of New Orleans. Another quotes Strassburger's PENNSYLVANIA GERMAN PIONEERS, page 42, where among the Palatine passengers of the ship "Pennsylvania Merchant," commanded by John Stedman, is one Abram Saler. That boat landed at Philadelphia 10 Sept 1731 from Dover, and before that from Rotterdam. Other sources says our Abram may have settled along the Susquehanna River on the border between Maryland and Pennsylvania.

According to Louis Hasbrouck Sahler's THE GENEALOGY OF THE SAHLERS OF THE USA, an Abraham Sahler of Hesse-Darmstadt settled at Perkioman, where he married Elizabeth Dubois (born 10 Sept. 1724) and had:
Issac Sahler.....married Eleanor Hartler
Abraham Sahler, Jr...... b. Sept. 1783 Montgomery, PA, married Tryntje van Wagenen
Elizabeth Sahler.....married Robert Patton
Rachel Sahler.....married John Gross
Catherine Sahler.....married Christian Gross
Daniel Sahler.....married Elizabeth van Wagenen
John Sahler.....married Ann Barlow
This Abram must have died cir. 1782, since volumes 16 & 17 of PENNSYLVANIA ARCHIVES (series 6) refer to many Sahlor men, with Isaac Sahlor and John Gross taxed for "Sahlor's estate."

L.H. Sahler's GENEALOGY OF THE SAHLER-GROSS FAMILIES (one volume, 38 pages) deals with Abrham Sahler (cir. 1724) of Montgomery, Lancaster, and York Co. PA

Other names that appear in the PENNSYLVANIA ARCHIVES in the 1780's include Conrad Sahlor, Valentine Sahlor, Matthias Sahlor, Jacob Sahlor, Henry Sailor, Jacob Sailor, Frederick Seiler, Michael Seiler, John Seiler Jr.

Margaret Hofman, COLONY OF NORTH CAROLINA ABSTRACTS OF LAND PATENTS 1735-65 (1984) lists:
5274.....p. 244 Patent Book 15 Henry Heager 26 Nov. 1757 200 acres Andson Co. joining below Leonard Seallers in a fork of Killions Creek
976.....p. 158 Book 2: Jacob Sellers 23 May 1757 100 acres Duplin Co.
4860.....Abraham Sellers 13 March 1756 100 acres Duplin Co. between Hays and Clarks plantations
5697.....p. 339 Book 15: Peater Sealer 10 April 1761 240 acres Anson Co. on both sides of Middle Branch of Killyn's Creek joining Francis Beatey including his own improvements
(There are various other Sellers deeds in this book)

HACKLEMANS IN AMERICA suggests as other children:
JOSEPH SALER/SAYLOR/SAILOR, m. Katherine
PETER SEALER/SAYLOR/SAHLERS
JACOB SELLERS/SAILORS
CONRAD SALER/SALLERS
MICHAEL SAYLOR/SAILORS
WILLIAM SAILOR, entered land on west side of Buffalo Creek, NC, in 1774
HENRY SAILOR, resident of Stokes Co. NC in 1810
GEORGE LEONARD SAILORS/SAYLOR. A George Leonard Sailors/Saylor was administrator of Peter Saylor's estate in October 1762. George and William Armstrong provided 200 pounds security on Gasper Keener's estate. On June 6, 1774, George Leonard, of Tryon (now Lincoln) County, sold land on the middle fork of Killian's Creek which he purchased from Ulneck Crowder to Devlad Crites. On May 2, 1782, George Leonard sold to John Rudisill part of a grant to Grasper Keener. George Leonard, now of SC, sold to John Cutfreeterant land on both sides of Leopard's Creek. (Could George Leonard Sailors be Leonard Sailors?)

Are ANY of these people related to us? Is the tradition of John's father being Abram correct?

Your guess is as good as mine, at this point....

In Reply to: Re: Nancy Sailors married John Tyner by JaneLeavell
In my genealogy and notes Abraham Saylors or Zoellers was born 1710 in Lucerne, Switzerland. He married Catherine Seyleria about 1731 in Switzerland. Some say that Seyleria was not her maiden name, only another variation of Saylors. Abraham came on the ship Harle to Philedelphia, PA 1 Sep 1736. I have the same children you do listed. My ancestor was Leonard Saylors who married Mary___? Their son Leonard married Amy Gant, their daughter Sarah Saylors married Elijah Hickey. Migration from MD or PA to Pendleton, SC to NC then to White Co., TN. Glad to share info.

The Names Of Petitioners of Lincoln Co NC
19 Oct 1779
If this is your first encounter with the records of NC please be aware that the clerks spelled names in any and all ways, even within the same document. You will not be able to use the "find" key in these abstracts. You need to look at each name.
The original list is found in NC Legislature Papers, Box #27, Folder 19 Oct 1779, NC Archives. I abstracted this data in 1982. I later found the data listed in:
"Burke County, North Carolina Land Records 1779-1790 and Important Miscellaneous Records 1777-1800, Volume II." Edith Warren Huggins and published 1981. Mrs. Huggins' four-volume series of Burke Co. are still available from Southern Historical Press Inc., P.O. Box 738, Easley, South Carolina 19641-0738.
(Katherine Sullivan sully at vnet.net was kind enough to furnish the following information) The first known petition was dated 25 December 1778 and presented to the General Assembly on 23 January 1779 (the one you have listed). There were three others: two dated 9 [or possibly 19] October 1779, and one dated 1782.
On 4 May 1782 the General Assembly approved the annexation of a portion of Burke Co. to Lincoln Co. A further annexation of part of Burke Co. to Lincoln Co. occurred in 1784. The area annexed in 1784 was the same area that in December 1842 became the new county of Catawba Co.
The original petitions are available at North Carolina Archives filed under the category of "General Assembly Sessions Records." To see the original petitions, email the NC Archives at archives@ncsl.dcr.state.nc.us.
A part of Burke County was annexed to Lincoln Co, NC. The act of 1783 was amended in 1818 ... from the three cornered Island in the Catawba River to the bent of Little River in James Fox's land .. agreeable to the act of 1793 to have a portion of Burke county annexed to Lincoln county 1779 ....

Generation No. 2

2. MARY ELIZABETH SAILORS (ABRAM) was born Abt. 1736, and died June 08, 1824 in South Carolina. She married MICHAEL HECKLEMAN March 1750/51. He was born Abt. 1720 in Germany, and died Abt. 1808 in Abbeville Co., South Carolina.

Notes for MICHAEL HECKLEMAN:
A Wabash County, IN, history article on Elijah Hackleman says the name means "little hook man," from the German "hakel," or "little hook."

According to descendant Elijah, Michael Hechleman emigrated to America at age 17 from Germany and was bound to a Maryland or Pennsylvania farmer for 3 years to cover the cost of his passage. Eventually he cleared 60 acres of land and squared his account, and married Mary Sailors in March, 1751.

One source says Michael and his brothers Abraham and Leonard landed at the Port of New Orleans.

Others quote Rupp, p. 198, and Strassberger, p. 399, who have a Michael Hackleman emigrating from the Wirtemberg, Alsace, and Zeibrucken area and landing Wednesday, Sept. 13, 1749 to Philadelphia on the ship CHRISTIAN, captained by Thomas Brady, from Rotterdam to Cowes, England.

From Elijah Hackleman's Diary (with his spelling corrected):
"Michael Hackleman was born in Germany about the year 1720. The precise time cannot now be ascertained. He emigrated to American in the 17th year of his age and was bound to a Maryland or Pennsylvania farmer for three years to pay his passage. He finally cleared 26 acres of land and squared the account. He married Mary Sailors in March 1751 and settled on the Susquehanna River near the lines between the states of Pennsylvania and Maryland. He was quite illiterate as regards an English Education, could hardly speak the English language so as to be understood. He died some time in the year 1808 in Abbeville District, South Carolina.

Note: Michael Hackleman was born probably in Nassau County, Germany, about 25 miles North West of Frankfort on the River Main and probably East of Koblenz on the Rhine. Some of my German neighbors say that there are some Haglomers still living there."

One Indiana county history says 3 brothers sailed from Germany to Mississippi and one, Jacob, with his wife Mary, moved to South Carolina. Michael did have two sons who ended up in the Lowndes County, Mississippi area.

Michael and wife Mary settled on the Susquehanna River near the line between Maryland and Pennsylvania. He spoke barely understandable English.

"Records of the Williams Township Congregation Churchbook at the Augsburg Confession in Sancon at Phillip Schlauch's, not far from the Big Lehigh and forks of the Delaware," in PENNSYLVANIA GERMAN CHURCH RECORDS, Vol. II, Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co. Inc. (1983) has the baptism of Johann Conrad and of Margaretha Catharina Hechelman, daughter of Michel and wife Elisabetha, born Nov. 25, 1753, baptized January 26, 1754, sp. Johannes Michel Lutz and wife Margaretha.

His name appears on a Burke County, South Carolina petition to have parts of Burke and Rowan formed into a new county, Lincoln. By October, 1770, he appears in Lincoln County, North Carolina deeds with wife "Elizabeth."

He had 60 acres and 9 slaves in 96th District, Abbeville, South Carolina in the 1787 tax lists.

Edith W. Huggins, BURKE COUNTY NORTH CAROLINA LAND RECORDS, vol. II (1981) has:
#1705, p. 565 Michael Hackellman, 300 acres both sides Leopards Creek joining Brysons and John Bumgarners including his own improvements for complement. Entered 26 July 1779.

Brent Holcomb, TRYON-LINCOLN DEEDS, vol. I (1977) has:
p. 590-1 Oct. 1770
Michael Heckelman and wife Elizabeth of Tryon Co. to Saml. Martin of same for L10 land on both sides of Anderson Mountain Creek granted to sd. Heckelman 22 December 1768 adj. Sailors line. Wit: Isaac LeClare, Henry Lollar. (Heckelman signed with X's.)

p. 698-9 4 Oct 1784.....Michael Heckelman & wf. Elizabeth of Lincoln Co. to Valentine Little of same, for L140, land on both sides Leopard Creek adj. Thompson granted to sd. Heckelman 300 A 22 December 1768. (He signs with an M, she with a +)

1787 in census for Abbeville District, SC

Estate managed by Conrad & George Hackleman.

Climbing around on ladders in the County Recorders office in Abbeville several years, a cousin found original "Receipts and Expenditures of the Estate of Michael Hackleman." (The Will, assuming there was one, was lost when part of the Courthouse burned years ago.) One sheet listed on the payments from people who owed the estate: Cash from John Roberts $12.00, From Benjamin Ball $12.25, etc. showed 2 slaves (Lydia and Esther) valued at $475.00. There are a couple of interesting items on the disbursement side: To Reuben Brock for 3 gal, 1 quart, 1 pint of Brandy for the sale $3.37. To Archibald Reid, Whiskey for the sale $2.00. (A proven way to get the bids flowing.)

Children of MARY SAILORS and MICHAEL HECKLEMAN are:
.....i......LYDIA HACKLEMAN, b. Abt. 1754, Maryland; d. Abt. 1769.
6......ii......JOHAN JACOB HACKLEMAN, b. July 16, 1752, Springfield Twp., Bucks, Pennsylvania; d. January 16, 1829, Rush County, Indiana.
.....iii......MARGARETHA CATHARINA HACKLEMAN, b. November 25, 1753, Bucks County, Pennsylvania.

Notes for MARGARETHA CATHARINA HACKLEMAN:
"Records of the Williams Township Congregation Churchbook at the Augsburg Confession in Sancon at Phillip Schlauch's, not far from the Big Lehigh and forks of the Delaware," in PENNSYLVANIA GERMAN CHURCH RECORDS, Vol. II, Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co. Inc. (1983) has the baptism of Johann Conrad and of Margaretha Catharina Hechelman, daughter of Michel and wife Elisabetha, born Nov. 25, 1753, baptized January 26, 1754, sp. Johannes Michel Lutz and wife Margaretha.
.....iv......JOHANN CONRAD HACKLEMAN, b. April 27, 1758; d. Abt. 1833, Columbus, Lowndes, Mississippi.
Notes for JOHANN CONRAD HACKLEMAN:
"Records of the Williams Township Congregation Churchbook at the Augsburg Confession in Sancon at Phillip Schlauch's, not far from the Big Lehigh and forks of the Delaware," in PENNSYLVANIA GERMAN CHURCH RECORDS, Vol. II, Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co. Inc. (1983) has the baptism of Johann Conrad and of Margaretha Catharina Hechelman, daughter of Michel and wife Elisabetha, born Nov. 25, 1753, baptized January 26, 1754, sp. Johannes Michel Lutz and wife Margaretha.

Conrad’s godparents were Johann Conrad Dankel and his wife Catharina.

He never married. In an early time, probably 1810, he journeyed tothe state of Mississippi, and died there about 1833 or 1834.

7......v......GEORGE E. HACKLEMAN, b. Abt. 1770, Maryland; d. 1844, Columbus, Lowndes, Mississippi.
.....vi......JOHN HACKLEMAN, b. Abt. 1772; d. Abt. 1784, Iredell County, North Carolina. John drowned in the south fork of the Yadkin River, chasing the thief who stole two of his father's horses. At the ford was a shooting match, with most participants too drunk to warn him that recent rains flooded the river. He and a friend plunged in, and John alone drowned, 10 miles NE of Slatesville Court House, Iredell County, North Carolina.

3. LEONARD SAILORS (ABRAM) was born Abt. 1748, and died in Anderson, Pendleton, South Carolina. He married MARY ?.

Notes for LEONARD SAILORS:
The North Carolina Booklet, Vol. IX
The History of Lincoln County
By Alfred Nixon
At July Term, 1770, "Thomas Camel came into court and proved that the lower part of his ear was bit off in a fight with Steven Jones, and was not taken off by sentence of law; certified by whom it may concern." At a later term, "James Kelly comes into open Court of his own free will and in the presence of said court did acknowledge that in a quarrel between him and a certain Leonard Sailor on the evening of the 2nd day of June, 1773, he did bite off the upper part of the left ear of him, the said Leonard Sailor, who prays that the same be recorded in the minutes of the said court." This confession gave James Kelly such standing in the esteem of his Majesty's Justices that at the same term it was ordered by the Court that James Kelly serve as constable in the room of George Trout and that he swear in before Thomas Espy, Esq." From the court entries biting off ears was a popular way of fighting, but whole ears were at least an outward sign of honesty.

Janel, My William Alexander was born 1852 in White Co. TN. He was believed to be don of Jesse Saylors. Jesse parents were Frederick "Fed" Saylors married to Elisabeth Cameron. Fed was son of Leonrad SaylorsJr. and Amy Gant. Leonard son of Leonard Sr. Saylors and Mary ???. Leonrad Saylors son of Abraham Sayler and Catharina Seylerin. Ginger told to also to link up with you she says you have lots of info!!! Please email me I still have not been able to email you!! Thanks!!

The history below disagrees with the descendants I’ve outlined for Leonard in this version of the Sailors history (and unknown to me, my FTM’s memory gave out before the entire history was recorded…):

The Saylors of Saylors Crossroads Anderson S. C.
Posted by: Jackie Story Shaw Date: February 05, 2002 at 15:05:27
The Saylors of Saylors Crossroads, Anderson County, South Carolina
...I received this family history several weeks ago and I have reviewed this information, seen the documentation concerning the wills and testate papers. Also this information is combined from the history written by Albert Bruce Pruitt in 1976, the history of the Ashley Family written in 1986, also the research of Cheryl Ann Lowe. I have been to the Mt. Bethel Cemetery and personally seen the graves of the family members who are buried there.
...There is so much family information here and I wanted to share with others who may be researching. Maybe this will give others a starting place. I have much more concerning the families of William Jasper Sr. and William Jasper Jr. and their families. If anyone has information concerning these families I would love to hear form you.

GENERATION NUMBER ONE
THE FAMILY OF LEONARD SAYLORS SR AND MARY
Leonard and Mary were both born before 1755 according to census records. Albert Bruce Pruitt wrote a history of this family and their descendants in 1976 and said it was unclear where Leonard or Mary may have been born or who their parents were. However today there seems to be a lot of new documentation that Leonard and Mary lived and owned land in North Carolina before moving to South Carolina.
...Census records indicate Leonard appeared in Pendleton District South Carolina as early as 1790. Aside from census records and maybe some land records, according to the author of this history, the only South Carolina records of the couple is Leonard’s will dated October 14, 1811 and probated on October 29, 1811. The will was filed in a part of Old Pendleton District, which later became part of Anderson County.
...The Estate of Leonard Saylor, Anderson County, Estates Roll 610, South Carolina Archives: Leonard started his will with his name I Leonard Saylor Senior. Leonard signed the will "L S." After bequeathing his soul to his maker and body to dust, Leonard gave most of his belongings to his wife, Mary. She received a bay filly branded on the right shoulder with a single S; two cows and calves; all cooking and table furniture; all beds and furniture; loom and it’s furniture; house and land as long as she remains his widow; sufficient meat and bread for 1 year. Son George’s children 3 dollars each; daughter Margaret, and daughter Eve, son Abraham and son Leonard was given an equal share of the remaining estate after debts were paid.
...The personal property of the estate, which was not designated in the will of Leonard’s, were sold on the Second Day of November 1811. Notable among these possessions were Thomas and Priscilla two Negro slaves appraised at one hundred dollars for the pair. Eve Faith, Leonard’s daughter, bought both of them at a price of one hundred and twenty-two dollars from the estate sale. Also there were four books written in DUTCH, appraised at one dollar each which Abraham purchased. All the children purchased different items from the estate sale.
THE CHILDREN OR LEONARD SAYLOR SR. AND MARY
1. George Saylors
2. Margaret Saylors
3. Eve Saylors married James Faith
4. Abraham Saylors
5. Leonard Saylors Jr. was born 1786 died May 14, 1856 married Sarah Johnson born Feburary 7, 1793 died August 16-1881. Leonard Saylors Jr. and his descendants are buried in Mt. Bethel Church Cemetery near Saylors Cross Roads located about 12 miles south of the town of Anderson on Abbeville Highway. The location of this land is near the Abbeville county line.

Personally appears before me, John Davis and being dully sworn on the Holy Evangelist of the Almighty God, make oath that day he saw Leonard Saylor sign, seal, publicly pronounce, and declare the within to contain his last will and testament that the Leonard Saylor was then of sound mind, memory, and understanding to the best of the deponents knowledge and belief. And that he John Davis did sign his name as a witness at the request of the deceased at the same time.
John Harris did appoint Samuel Black as the executor on the 29th day of October 1811. John Harris signed the document as Esquire Ordinary of Pendleton District.

GENERATION NUMBER TWO
THE FAMILY OF LEONARD SAYLORS JR. AND SARA JOHNSON
Leonard Saylors Jr. was born 1786 in North Carolina according to information he gave the census taker in 1850. Leonard’s parents were Leonard Saylors Sr. and Mary (Maiden name is unknown). Leonard may have moved with his parents to South Carolina as early as 1790. Leonard died May 14, 1856, 70 years old and a consistent member of the Baptist faith as stated on his tombstone. Leonard Saylors is buried in Mt. Bethel Church Cemetery along with his wife Sara Johnson Saylors born February 7, 1793 and died August 16, 1881, age 88 years 6 months and 9 days. Sara was a consistent member of the Baptist faith as stated on her tombstone. There are two tombstone located at Mt. Bethel with the above information inscribed in the stone located with some of their children and grandchildren who were buried in the Cemetery. Lenard is how his name is spelled on his tombstone. However, on all the testate papers filed in Anderson District, South Carolina his name is spelled Leonard. The tombstone cutter must have made a mistake with the spelling. Below are picture of the tombstones. Leonard married Sarah Johnson sometime in the period 1810-1814, judging from the ages of their children. Sarah’s parents were born in Virginia and moved to South Carolina where Sara was born. Leonard and Sarah had four daughters and five sons.

FARMING WAS THEIR WAY OF LIFE
Leonard’s farm in the 1850 agriculture census. There were 80 acres of improved land, 100 acres unimproved with land value of $750 and $150 in implements. There were two horses, three cows, six cattle, five sheep, and 30 swine, with live stock value of $180. Fifty pounds of potatoes, three bales cotton, six bushels beans, eighty bushels sweet potatoes, one hundred four pounds of butter, twelve pounds of honey, $30 home manufacture, and $40 in slaughtered animals.

LEONARD SAYLORS DIES WITH NO WILL
Leonard Saylors Jr. left no will. On July 14, 1856 Herbert Hammond, Esquire Ordinary of Anderson District, appointed as administrators of the estate three of Leonard Saylors sons John B. Saylors, William J. Saylors, and David W. Saylors.
...John B. Saylors (son of Leonard, the deceased) supplied a letter on July 14, 1856 to Herbert Hammond Ordinary of Anderson District requesting the estate of Leonard Saylors Jr. be sold or divided. Leonard’s estate consisted of 183 acres more or less, on the waters of Bear Creek bounded by Col. James Robinson, James Drake and others. This land was located in the Martin Township of Anderson County, which is near the Mt. Bethel Church Community. The land was appraised at $1000.00. In his letter to the court John B. Saylors list those who are entitled to receive their distributive share first Sarah Saylors, widow of the deceased, Nimrod Saylors, John Dove and his wife, Elizabeth Dove, George W. Dove and his wife, Sarah Dove. John B. Saylors, William T. Shaw and his wife, Nancy Shaw, Nicholas Callaham and his wife Anna Callaham. David W. Saylors, and William J. Saylors. The three first named live beyond the limits of this state and the remaining five reside in Anderson District.
Sara (his widow) received what was known as lot number one, containing 84 acres appraised at $376.00. The remainder known as lot number two, containing 154 acres was appraised at $752.00 and the three sons recommended the land to be sold at Anderson Court House on a credit of 12 months. Lot number 2 was bid off by John B. Armstrong, for David W. Saylors and William J. Saylors at $600.00 with that being the highest bid, on Dec. 5, 1856.
...The appraisers appointed to appraise his property were James Drake, Enock H. Drake, and James Robinson. His land was appraised for $1000.00 His personal property was appraised and sold at the deceased home on October 15th 1856. The family members bought many of the items from his home and farm.

....After Leonard Saylors Jr. died in 1856 Sarah survived until August 16, 1881 spending most of her time with her children and their families in the Mt. Bethel community. William Jasper their youngest son married Lucinda Ashley the same year that Leonard died and most probably they lived in the home with Sarah.

GENERATION NUMBER THREE THE FAMILY OF WILLIAM JASPER AND LUCINDA ASHLEY SAYLORS
William was born July 7, 1834 the youngest of nine children and the forth son of Leonard Saylors Jr. and Sarah Johnson Saylors. In 1850 William is listed in the census as attending school during the previous year.
...William, who was 22 years old, married Lucinda C. Ashley in 1856. The same year his father Leonard died. Lucinda, 21 years old, was the daughter of Edward Ashley and Elizabeth Able. The picture is of William and Lucinda made around 1910.
...Lucinda was born on January 24, 1835. Her family, the Ashley’s lived in the same area that the Sailors lived and both families attended Mount Bethel Baptist Church. Shortly after the birth of their third child, the Civil War arrived and William was going to enlist. At the insistence of his wife, the new baby was named William Jasper Junior.

THE CIVIL WAR YEARS
The great struggle came as a thunderbolt from the storm that had been brewing for some time. It was neither welcomed nor expected but the people of the South responded to the call to arms with earnestness and decision. It was South Carolina who took the initiative. The Confederacy was formed February 8,1861. The Confederates troops aimed their guns at Fort Sumter in South Carolina and fired the first shot that began the Civil War on an April morning in 1861.
..Never has such patriotism and such zeal to help been shown of the South. They wiped all tears away and started to work. The women of Mount Bethel Community, just like all the other women in communities all across the South, they forgot their fears and anxiety and began to make comfortable outfits for their sons and husbands. Everything was made by hand. Women were busy with their needles, men with their rifles, both preparing for a great and common cause. Young men, as much as they disliked leaving loved ones at home, were thrilled with the war spirit and longed to reach Columbia where companies and regiments were formed.
..William enlisted at the Anderson Court House, December 28, 1861. Then he was transferred to Columbia. William was placed in Company A of the 12th Regiment South Carolina Volunteers along with many of his neighbors and kinfolk from the Mount Bethel community.
..This regiment was first sent to defend Charleston Harbor, which seemed almost mandatory for South Carolina troops. In the spring of 1862, the regiment was sent to Richmond as a part of Gregg’s Brigade so named for their commander General Maxcy Gregg. This brigade participated in all the battles of the Army of Northern Virginia until the surrender. The brigade is most notable mentioned for service during the first day of the Second Manassas, where about 50% of the men were killed or wounded, and during the first day of Gettysburg. General Gregg was unintentionally killed, by his own troops, at Fredricksburg. The regiment was then commanded by General Pender until Gettysburg, at which time the boys on the other side of the line wounded General Pender. After Gettysburg, General Samuel McGowan commanded the regiment. Through all these battles, William Saylors’ record is very scarce. There is one mention that he served as guard for horses of Hampton’s Leigon during Gettysburg, along with other of his regiment. Then William was captured about a week before the surrender. This happened at the Battle of Five Forks southwest of Petersburg. The generals in command were off having fried chicken, and most of the 12th Regiment was captured. William was sent to Hart’s Island in the Harbor of New York City. He was finally released in June 1865, about two months after the surrender.
...During the war, in August 1862, William received a furlough to visit home. During his visit, his only daughter Sarah became sick with Dyptheria. Sarah died August 20, 1862 and William had to return to the war immediately after the funeral. Little Sallie, as Sarah was called, was buried in the Mount Bethel Cemetery near the graves of her Sailors grandparents because this was the only site available on such short notice. Because he was on furlough at this time, William most probably missed the Second Battle of Manassas where so many of his regiment and brigade were killed or wounded.
...Meanwhile back home in the Mount Bethel Community, families were struggling just as they were all across the south. Most families had farms to maintain and with no men folk around to help. The women and small children had to take on the responsibilities of running the farm, tending to the farm animals and equipment, working the fields to prepare for crops, and preserving food. As you can see feeding the family became a daily struggle. Also, soon after the war had began all the seaports of the Southern States were blockaded. Everything went up enormously in price and what little dry goods and groceries that were available soon sold. There was a great scarcity in cloth and sewing notions, like needles and buttons, grain, sugar, coffee, tea, salt, soda, castor oil, paper and envelops. Then commenced the lesson of thrift, make shift and invention that developed so wonderfully during the struggle. Most families wore the same cloths for four years, thread bare and patched many times also they used thorns from the wild lemon bush for pins and buttons had to be made out of persimmon seeds; Grain had to be raised and ground into flour; people substituted parched wheat and rye for coffee; sweet potatoes, cut into tiny squares and dried in the sun were used for sugar; dried leaves of blackberry, sassafras roots, spice wood, and other herbs were used for tea; to have salt Lucinda like all of her neighbors would dig up the ground in the smokehouse, where the salt had dripped from the meat, which hung above. The dirt was put into a hopper and dipped down into a vessel then boiled, getting the sediment, which was a brown salt. Soda, too, was scarce; it had to be made by burning cloth using one-half pint of castor oil. Castor Oil also was scarce and was kept in a secret hiding place. Letters were written on any kind of paper they were able to get and envelops were made out of wall paper or any paper blank on one side. Ink was made of oak balls or walnut juice.
..Then came a time when few things could be bought with Confederate money and every one bartered with everyone else. It is said that one woman swapped 30 yards of home spun cloth for one- half-pint of castor oil.
..News from the army was precious and when anyone in the community received a letter from a soldier it would be sent around to all the neighbors and read so that every one might keep up with the operation of the army.
...Mount Bethel Baptist Church was a source of hope and faith for the small community during the struggles, the adversity, and the sorrow that invaded the life of it members during these difficult times that were consequences brought about from this war.
...Lucinda, like all the other wives, lit their homes with tallow, wax candles and even pine knots during the late evening, as the family read from their Bible and prayed to God to bring their loved ones home safely.
...Lucinda’s children were just babies and she had to depend on her sisters, Millie Ashley Murdock, Lize Ashley, and Sarah Jane Ashley Mitchell to help out and occasionally they would give her food. William’s family lived nearby also, and they helped as they could. Just providing for the needs of your own family was almost all anyone could do during these difficult times.
...The War ended on April 9, 1865. William was released from prison about two months later and he walked home with two of his friends. William also had a Springfield rifle he was bringing home. When the three were a little way north of Anderson, William announced he would have to sit down and rest a while. The other two men were younger and eager to get home being so close and they left William sitting. In a little while William caught up with them, before they got home. William’s family was worried that he might have been killed, since there was little word about the people who had been captured and the people from Lee’s and Johnston’s Armies had already surrendered and most were home. The family saw William coming down the road and ran to welcome him home. But he stopped them and yelled that he had lice. He told them to put out a wash pot and some clean clothes by the barn for him to use. After he washed and dressed, they burned his uniform that Lucinda had made before the war, because it was infested with lice.
...While William was in the war he developed a childhood disease called the Mumps. For children the disease is uncomplicated with about a week of recovery. However, for an adult male the Mumps can be a serious illness, leaving the adult male sterile, unable to father children. William and Lucinda only had the three children even though they tried to have more children after he returned from the war.

HOW SAILORS CROSS ROADS CAME TO BE THEIR HOME
...William bought the first part of the land at Saylors Crossroads, the intersection of S C highway 185 and 284, in the following way. The land was for sale at an auction. Another man outbid William. The man later met William and remarked, “You really wanted that land.” He then made a deal to trade the land to William for $400.00 and a shotgun, which William had, and the man admired. The deal was made and William owned the first part of his land. This part later went to his younger son William J. Saylors, Jr. William later bought the adjacent land across the road with the understanding that his two sons would share equally in paying for that land. This second plot was later given to William’s older son John Thomas Saylors.

THE FAMILY OF WILLIAM AND LUCINDA SAYLORS
...The old house is the Saylors home place located at Saylors Cross Roads in the Mount Bethel Community. Which was the site of numerous Family Reunions over the years. William built their home at Saylors Crossroads. He started with one room then built additions, as more room was needed. In the beginning the kitchen was separate with a dirt floor. William and Lucinda began with a small family of two boys; little Sallie died as a young child. However, as you can see the family soon multiplied producing twenty-three grandchildren. Many of the grandchildren lived nearby and always filled their home with laughter and childhood amusement. They referred to William as “Pap” and Lucinda as “Mam”. The photo above was their family; Pap and Mam are in the center and he has a long white beard. John Thomas and his family are on the left side and William Jasper Jr. and his family are on the right side. This photo was taken at the home of William Jasper Jr. around 1910-1911. Cheryl Ann Lowe Haguewood, the daughter of Wayne Clark Lowe graciously shared this print. The original picture belonged to Marvin Lowe, the fourth child of Bessie Saylors.

FARMING WAS THEIR WAY OF LIFE
...William was a farmer and his farm was listed as following in the agriculture census for Anderson, South Carolina. 1860 William had zero acres; perhaps he used some of the acres of his brother David Washington Saylors. There was $75. in implements, one horse, two cows, three cattle, 7 swine, with livestock value of $50. Production was seventy- five bushels corn, one bale cotton, twenty bushels beans, fifty pounds of butter, one ton hay, $10. Home manufacture, and $40 in slaughter.
...By 1870, William’s farm had progressed all the way to ten whole acres improved land with value of $200 and $5 in implements. There were one horse, one cow, two cattle, four Sheep, two swine, with livestock value $114. Production fifty-two pounds of butter, $25 home manufacture, $25 in slaughter, with total value of $ 262.
...Then in 1880 William is listed with 40 acres improved land, implements, $10 in building repair, $45 spent for fertilizer, livestock value of $183, and production value $772. There were two mules, two cows, two cattle, one calf, four swine, and nine chickens. Production was fifty pounds butter, fifty-two dozen eggs, and fourteen acres corn yielding one-hundred-fifty bushels, two acres cotton yielding ten bales, twenty bushels peas, twenty-five bushels sweet potatoes, and fifteen cords of wood sold for $22.
...William died April 10, 1912 and was buried in Mt. Bethel Cemetery. He was 78 years old and had lived about 35 years longer than his brother JB. He lived in the same area all of his adult life.
...Lucinda lived long enough to receive a pension for her husband’s service in the Civil War. She received twenty-nine dollars in 1916, thirty dollars in 1917, and thirty-two dollars in 1919 or ninety-one total for the final three years of her life. Lucinda died on November 10, 1919, and was buried beside her husband in Mt. Bethel Cemetery.

Notes for JOHN SAILORS:
Elijah Hackleman's REMINISCENCES says:
"At the commencement of the dispute of the Colonies and Great Brittain [sic], the neighborhood in which Sailors lived from its remoteness from seaboard, and from the difficulty of obtaining news, remained tranquil and peacible [sic] for a long time. Finally people began to take sides, and controversy sprang up. It was understood that there was to be a meeting of some kind at a store at the crossroads in the neighborhood. It was generally understood that there would be difficulty at that time. Finally the day of the meeting arrived, and the whole surrounding country, by common consent, rushed together at the store at the crossroads, men, women, and children. Some came armed, others came merely through curiousity to see the crowd. Among the latter was the subject of this sketch, having no idea as he afterwards related, that there would be any trouble, and in crossing a cornfield on his way, he cut a cornstick cane, and carried it along with him, supposing it would answer every purpose as a military weapon for him on that occasion.

But mark his astonishment, when he came in sight of the store. He saw squads of men riding in all directions, some dashing up the road, some rushing a cross the fields, and presently the sharp crack of rifles from almost every fence corner before him, and also from the woods, and bushes just across the little field, came the quick response.

Then John Sailor stood a moment in amazement at the scene before him, then flashed across his mind the appaling [sic] fact, that WAR had actually commenced in the Western Pioneer Settlements of North Carolina. In this moment of consternation he cast his eye on the weapon in his hand, A CORNSTOCK CANE.

There turning on his heel, fled from the scene of carnage, making his way home as fast as possible, taking down his trusty rifle and putting it in order to defend his country.

Prior to this time, what cared the hardy Western Pioneer of North Carolina for the paltry tax on a pound of tea? Why the whole country for miles around would not use a pound of tea in six months.

True they occasionally feasted on tea, but it was made of spice brush or sassafras root.

This first contest for Liberty in the Pioneer Settlements of North Carolina has almost faded away from the memory of man. It has always since been known as the "Battle of the Old Store" fought by Whigs and Tories, friends and nieghbors [sic] of former years, and here for the first time meeting each other as enemies on the field of Battle.

Here was laid the foundation for hard capacity for self defence that afterward showed itself on the battlefield. Ramsour's Mill and King's Mountain, in both of which the subject of this sketch was a participant...."

"Burke County, North Carolina Land Records 1779-1790 and Important Miscellaneous Records 1777-1800, Volume II." Edith Warren Huggins and published 1981. Mrs. Huggins' four-volume series of Burke Co. are still available from Southern Historical Press Inc., P.O. Box 738, Easley, South Carolina 19641-0738.
(Katherine Sullivan sully at vnet.net was kind enough to furnish the following information) The first known petition was dated 25 December 1778 and presented to the General Assembly on 23 January 1779 (the one you have listed). There were three others: two dated 9 [or possibly 19] October 1779, and one dated 1782.
On 4 May 1782 the General Assembly approved the annexation of a portion of Burke Co. to Lincoln Co. A further annexation of part of Burke Co. to Lincoln Co. occurred in 1784. The area annexed in 1784 was the same area that in December 1842 became the new county of Catawba Co.
The original petitions are available at North Carolina Archives filed under the category of "General Assembly Sessions Records." To see the original petitions, email the NC Archives at archives@ncsl.dcr.state.nc.us.
A part of Burke County was annexed to Lincoln Co, NC. The act of 1783 was amended in 1818 ... from the three cornered Island in the Catawba River to the bent of Little River in James Fox's land .. agreeable to the act of 1793 to have a portion of Burke county annexed to Lincoln county 1779 ....

.....Possible parents of Nicholas Saylors are Daniel Phillip Salars and Rachel Henry.
.....I really haven't been able to tie them together yet with sufficient evidence to make it a fact, so take it with a grain of salt.
.....Nicholas is the most likely father of John Calvin Salars at this point. Marriage license to Nancy Lancaster who is definitely the Mom of John Calvin and William A.Salars.
.....After marrying Nancy in November of 1846 (a few days after John Calvin was born), we find the family living in Titus County, Texas in the 1850 Census, pg 30.
.....They had another son, William A in 1851 in Arkansas .
.....Nicholas drops out of the picture somewhere between 1851 and 1854 when Nancy and George Hopkins were married in Lawrence County, Tn. (Also in the Titus county census on page 37 is John Saylors-possibly Nicholas' brother who married Malinda Lancaster-possibly Nancy Ann's sister-the families were also together in Tennessee)
.....By the 1860 Census we find Nancy Ann married to George W. Hopkins in Tipah County, Mississippi and the family is prety easy to trace up to the present time. (Nancy age 31, John Calvin age 12 and William A age 9).
.....The spelling of the last name also undergoes changes during this period, from Nicholas Sailors, to John Calvin and William A Sailers (when the boys are living with George Hopkins).
.....It remains as Sailers during the 1870 Census (Nancy age 41, John age 22 and William age 19)
.....By the 1880 Census, both John Calvin and William A (along with their families) are spelling their name as Salars.
.....(But it goes back to Saylors in the 1900 Census when Mary Emily Fry s married to Fred Lee)
.....Today, in my branch of the family, it is spelled Salars.

.....vi......ANNA SAILORS, b. Abt. 1828, Tennessee; d. Abt. 1830, Tennessee.

10. JACOB SAILORS (JOHN, ABRAM) was born Abt. 1776 in Bruke (now Cawtaba) County, North Carolina, and died November 29, 1836 in Rush County, Indiana. He married NANCY LACY Abt. 1799 in Abbeville Co., South Carolina, daughter of JOHN LACY and ALICE SYDNOR. She was born Abt. 1780 in Hallifax County, Virginia, and died Bef. 1874.

Notes for JACOB SAILORS:
In 1804, to Scott County, Kentucky. In 1806, to Brookville, Franklin, IN. In 1812, Gov. Jennings appointed Jacob a Capt. in 7th Reg. Indiana Militia for 5 yrs. In 1821, to Rush County, Indiana.

Property: February 06, 1841, Estate papers Rush Co., Ind batch # 7130815

Residence: Montgomery Co., Virginia

Probate book 3, 1841-3, p. 220 says Conrad Sailors was appointed administrator 19 Oct 1836 of Jacob Sailor's estate. In final settlement were widow; W.G. Sailors; M. Sailors; John Sailors; Fanny Sailors; J.L. Sailors; C. Sailors. Feb. term 1842.

Jacob's body was dug up in March 1845 from Hackleman farm cemetery and taken to Pleasant Run Cemetery 5 miles SW. The body had petrified and was hard as a rock.

Notes for NANCY LACY:
Two different parentages are offered for Nancy: Zilpha and an unknown Lacy, and John Lacy & Alice Sydnor. Who's right? Who knows?

Zilpha Lacy's will was dated 18 October 1804 Abbeville District, SC and recorded in January, 1805. Children named are Nancy, Elizabeth, Charles, Caleb, Stephen, and Fields. Fields (or Fielding) moved to Fayette Co. IN and then to Fountain Co. IN. Zilpha's husband is unknown.

Looking for descendants of Zilpah Lacy. She died in 1804 in Abbeville, SC and had six children. Most of her children settled in Franklin Co., Indiana; Hamilton Co., OH and Fountain Co., IN. The six children were 1) Nancy who married Jacob Sailors 2) Elizabeth 3) Charles who married Patsy ? 4) Stephen married Elizabeth ? 5) Caleb (I believe this is the Caleb who married Lucy Lydia Horton) 6) Fielding married Martha Glover.
Question 9759 submitted by Rochelle Riordan pj5 at ix.netcom.com on 01/11/97

http://www.gengateway.com/genealogy/zilpah.htm
.....Zilpah was the mother of our ancestor, Fielding. Zilpah means "vanishing" in Hebrew. Her husband's name is unknown at this time. Her husband was probably was Thomas and her maiden name may have been Fields with Obediah being either her brother or father. Obediah Fields' estate was administered in 1802 in the Abbeville District. His wife's name was Catherine. Douglas Burton made bond and Thomas Osborn inventoried her estate. A Thomas Lacey joined the militia in Abbeville and served under Lt. William Conaway and Captains John Lindsay and John Norwood during 1781 and 1782. He lost a horse and saddle. In addition, he supplied 150 pounds of pork for the militia. In July, 1791, Thomas Lacy and Obediah Fields were dismissed from the Turkey Creek (of Saluda) Baptist Church. (This church was constituted January 29, 1785.) In the 1800 census, Zilpah is listed at "Sils" and has with her 2 males under 10, 2 males 10-16. She is listed as being 26-45. Zilpah wrote her will October 18, 1804 and it was proved January 7, 1805 in Abbeville Co., SC. "...I dispose of in manner and form following to each of my daughters viz Nancy one shilling sterling, to my daughter Elizabeth one shilling like money, to my son Charles one shilling sterling, to my son Caleb one shilling sterling but first the property to be sold at twelve months credit and after paying the aforesaid the estate to be equally divided between my two sons Stephen and Fields and I do nominate my worthy friends John Oakley and John Cunningham to see this my last will and testament performed and fulfilled and as to my son, Fields, I leave him to the disposal of Executors to what they think best for his benefit and I do appoint these my executors to collect from B____ M_____ on account of his ______. Tom seven dollars and 37 1/2 cents from David McWhiter three dollars and 82 cents and dispose of it for to defray their expenses or otherwise as they shall think best." Witnesses were William L. Paris and Douglas Burton. Some of Zilpah's possessions included: 1 set of washing spoons, 2 chairs, bed clothes, cotton, a petticoat, 1 bedstock, 1 lot of clothes, a sifter, 6 spoons knives and forks, 2 pairs of cards, 1 basket, lumber, a quantity of corn, some leather, a spinning wheel, 4 reeds and 2 pairs of harnesses, a loom and a cow and calf. It is not known who Zilpah's daughters, Nancy and Elizabeth married however they were probably the oldest and married by 1800 for they were not listed with her in the census of that year. Fielding and his brother Charles moved to Franklin Co., Indiana by 1811. The "Franklin County History Atlas" says "at Brookville, there were Lacy's on the west fork". In 1811, Charles had one horse and was taxed $.50 on himself and 37 1/2 cents for his horse. In 1817, Charles is the only Lacy in Franklin Co., Indiana to appear on the tax list. On March 2, 1819, Charles and his wife, Patsy, sold land in the SW corner of Township 14, range 12, section 20 in Fayette County, Indiana for $2000.00. He had gotten this land in a Cincinnati land grant. The Fayette County, Indiana History has the following: "In March, 1819, Charles Lacy came to Connersville. He did not bring his family with him. He came for the purpose of building a cabin and putting out a small field of corn. The implements brought with him were carried on horses, pack-saddle fashion." Another brother, Stephen settled in Hamilton Co., OH before coming to Indiana. In the 1820 census of Hamilton Co., Stephen lists his age as 26-45. He is still residing in Hamilton County in Miami Township in 1830 and his age is listed as 40-50. The first record found for Stephen in Franklin Co., Indiana was on March 1, 1850 when be bought land in Township 11, range 13, section 15 on St. Mary's Road there. Whether Charles and Patsy remained in Franklin Co. is unknown. The only Charles Lacy listed in the 1820 census lived in Delaware County, Indiana and was 26-45 years old. This Charles lists two males under 10, 1 male 10-16, 4 females under 10, 1 female 10-16 and 1 female 26-45. In the 1830 census of Hamilton Co., OH there is a Charles listed. The whereabouts of Caleb is unknown. There was a Caleb Lacy in the 1820 census of Lincoln Co., TN and another in the 1840 census of St. Clair Co., IL. FIELDING AND MARTHA (GLOVER) LACY Fielding was born between 1790 and 1797 in South Carolina. The exact date is not known and three different references list him as different ages. Martha was born in February of 1801.
.....Fielding and his brother Charles moved to Franklin Co., Indiana by 1811. On March 13, 1813, Fielding Lacy was a private in Captain William T. Huff's Company of the 7th Regiment of the Indiana militia. This was the date he mustered in and the expiration of his service was June 13, 1813. He was paid $8.00 per month with the total pay being $25.29. On August 30, 1816 Fielding married Martha Glover at Brookville in Franklin Co., Indiana. In 1820 Fielding and his family are living in Connersville in Fayette Co., Indiana.

11. BENJAMIN SAILORS (JOHN, ABRAM) was born 1780 in Abbeville District, South Carolina, and died in Fort Des Moines, Polk County, Iowa. He married (1) MARGARET ?. He married (2) KERVILLES EVANS July 23, 1822 in Rush County, Indiana.

Notes for BENJAMIN SAILORS:
Married four times. Two known children.Benjamin lived some time in Tennessee, then Kentucky, then inFranklin Co., IN. Of his children little is known

Hi, I hope one of you can help me witth the downline past Benjamin. My cousin and I disagree on the line that we are in. She shows us in your line but I don't. Do you show a John B Saylor (Sailor) who was married to Mary Howard as the son of Benjamin. IShe shows Benjamin married four times where I show two and possilby three. One of the wifes that I show has the same last name as one that she list but a different first name. The one I show is Curilla Evans and she is listed as wife on the censuses that I have, and she shows a Kervillez Evans. The Benjamin that I show in my line was a brick mason and according to her note he owned a tavern. The one I have was from a strict Presbyterian back ground and I'm inclined to think that that doesn't fit in with a tavern owner. Any help that you can give us is greatly appreciated. Her Benjamin was born 1780, in Abbeyville District SC and My Benjamin was born June 13, 1781 in Charleston SC. I don't know where Abbeyville District is. This could be the sme Benjamin and if it is I can provide a lot of information about his line. It just doesn't seem to me to match up. Help! Elaine Christensen, Oklahoma City, OK

Elijah Hackleman says, "A man of great energy " and he was a "fit speciman of Pioneer times." Married four times, once to Kervilles Evans on 23 July 1822 in Rush County, IN. Kids include Sally (married her cousin Thomas Pogue), Fanny (married Rueben Lines, died 25 March 1884), and John (a doctor, died shortly before 1878. He was a son of a later wife). Ben died in Fort Des Moines, Polk County, Iowa.
.....Phyllis Hackleman's book says "Benjamin left South Carolina to live in Tennessee for a while. From here he brought his two daughters to Kentucky, then to Franklin County, Indiana. In 1821, he moved to Rush County, Indiana. Here, in August of 1823, he was granted a license to operate a tavern. Benjamin lived in Indianapolis, Marion County, Indiana, for a while, then moved near Des Moines, Polk County, Iowa, where he died."
.....I hadn't thought of a Tavern being a hotel so I guess that works. He was a businessman and a stone mason. In some of my paper work it shows him one of the first to own land in the Saylorville area because he provided food and supplies to the military fort before the Indians were moved from their land. In every thing that I have and there are quite a few articles about John B Saylor, there was never a mention of him being a doctor. He contracted to build the first County Court House of Polk County, and I guess was pretty much the backbone of that settlement. He went as a suttler with the Civil War troops from Iowa, He was too old to serve in the war, and contracted some kind of disentery at Vickburg from living for days at a time on wild fruits, berries etc and died in Vivksburg, MS in 1863. I just can't see how Dr John and Our John B. Could be one and the same but I have a lot of information from John B. to the present to share. The wives that I show for Benjamin were Margaret ???, who he married about 1800 when he would have been only 19. Margaret after 1816. Margaret was the mother of, Elizabeth, Margaret Ann, Sarah, John B., Thomas T., Hiram H., Mary, and Benjamin S., the second wife I have is Curilla Evans, who was only 18 to Benjamin's 42 when they married and they had Jehu Perkins, Martha, Noah Noble, Emily Caroline, and I have several other names including the Fanny and Sally, but show them with this mother. . They are Conrad, Jane, Nancy, Snyder.( I Just found where I got these names of the other children). Most of my inforamtion is from family journals and Bibles etc. this list of Children were from a manual family tree from the 1960 complied by a descendent of Thomas Jefferson Saylor, grandson of Benjamin. These children were listed in the home on a census ??? and she questions that they may have been grandchildren that lived with them at that time. They are all listed with the last name of Saylor. If he married Margaret at 19 and was married 1800-1816+ and married Curilla at in 1823 and had another pascel of kids, and the 1850 Census of Polk County shows him still married to Curilla.Was there one before he was 19, the one you show as the first wife?. He might have had a period of 7 years between Margaret and Curilla for another wife.
.....In an article written by Avis Saylor McQuiston, daughter of John and grand-daughter of Benjamin Saylor, she wrote, "My grandfather Benjamin Saylor and family were the first to settle in the fall of 1845. They settled in the Fort Cory Grove area and Three Rivers County, IA. My father John B Saylor's place was a stopping place for the immigrants. He first kept the post office north of Des Moines. He was never known to charge for a nights lodging nor for favor he could confer upon them but was likely to give them a ham or a sack of seed or other things that they might need."
.....In another document it says" Benjamin Saylor, the father of John B., came to Polk County and settled near his son soon demonstrated that he was an active and public-spirited citizen. At the county election in 1846 he was chosen as one of the three county commissioners and discharged his duties too the general satisfaction of the people. The first meeting of the commissioners was held in a log cabin April 13, 1846 and one of their first orders was that the eagle side of the half dollar should be used as the County Seal. He was an active member of the Settlers Claim Club, really a law and order league, and ably performed his part in forwarding the interests of the county." Thius is from "Cityof DesMoines and Polk County" Vol 11, The S.J. Clarke Publishing Company, 1911 Pages 1073-1074
.....Benjamin's oldest son by Curilla Evans, Jehu Perkins was born in 1823 in Indiana, which matches the dates that you have for Benjamin there.
.....A letter from another "cousin" written in 1979 to my mother show Benjamin Saylor Sr. was born in South Carolina according to a 1850 County Census and was shown to be 69 years of age. He is not in the census record os 1856 in Polk County, but do not know when, where he died or was buried.
.....The notes that I have from the descendent written in the 1960 doesn't show Benjamin being the son of John, grandson of Abraham. This line goes to Benjamin's father being Henry, whose father was Jacob (1740-1800), whose father was Jacob B. (1701-1796) and back to Jacob (Seiler) b about 1680. This is very confusing because all the rest sems to correspond with minor differences after Benjamin.
.....Let me know what you think and if you need some of what I have let me know. Thanks for responding Elaine

Elijah Hackleman says, "A man of great energy " and he was a "fit speciman of Pioneer times." Married four times, once to Kervilles Evans on 23 July 1822 in Rush County, IN. Kids include Sally (married her cousin Thomas Pogue), Fanny (married Rueben Lines, died 25 March 1884), and John (a doctor, died shortly before 1878. He was a son of a later wife). Ben died in Fort Des Moines, Polk County, Iowa.
.....Phyllis Hackleman's book says "Benjamin left South Carolina to live in Tennessee for a while. From here he brought his two daughters to Kentucky, then to Franklin County, Indiana. In 1821, he moved to Rush County, Indiana. Here, in August of 1823, he was granted a license to operate a tavern. Benjamin lived in Indianapolis, Marion County, Indiana, for a while, then moved near Des Moines, Polk County, Iowa, where he died."
.....Sounds to me like they DO match up. That John must be the one you have marrying Mary Howard. And Kervillez/Curilla are practically identical. Names get really weird spellings, especially in census and government records. I have an ancestor named Bernard Brady, and he showed in in a census as Barnhart Brady...which only makes sense if you say his name with a broad Irish drawl. Also, a tavern in those days was a place that provided a place to sleep and food to eat, as well as liquor--rather like a cheap hotel, not just a bar.
.....I'd love to see what data you have!

Hi, I hope one of you can help me witth the downline past Benjamin. My cousin and I disagree on the line that we are in. She shows us in your line but I don't. Do you show a John B Saylor (Sailor) who was married to Mary Howard as the son of Benjamin. IShe shows Benjamin married four times where I show two and possilby three. One of the wifes that I show has the same last name as one that she list but a different first name. The one I show is Curilla Evans and she is listed as wife on the censuses that I have, and she shows a Kervillez Evans. The Benjamin that I show in my line was a brick mason and according to her note he owned a tavern. The one I have was from a strict Presbyterian back ground and I'm inclined to think that that doesn't fit in with a tavern owner. Any help that you can give us is greatly appreciated. Her Benjamin was born 1780, in Abbeyville District SC and My Benjamin was born June 13, 1781 in Charleston SC. I don't know where Abbeyville District is. This could be the sme Benjamin and if it is I can provide a lot of information about his line. It just doesn't seem to me to match up. Help! Elaine Christensen, Oklahoma City, OK

Conrad's first wife died three weeks after the marriage, possibly in Abbeville Co. SC. A Conrad Sailors married a Mary Runan 19 June 1792 in Shenandoah Co. Virginia; could this be him?

Elijah Hackleman, in REMINISCENCES, describes his home: "...two miles below Brookville, Franklin County, Indiana Territory. This was then the border County. The great expanse of the west then remained an unbroken solitude and after the Battle of Tippiecanoe Indian depredations became frequent. In the neighborhood erected fortifactions for their defense, called Block Houses. Houses were made of large logs of trees and built to the height of fifteen or twenty feet. The logs were then projected about two or three feet over the wall of the main building and furnished with a suitable number of port holes for defense. The house was then reflected in with a wall and made of slods or logs, standing upright and sunk some three or four feet into the ground with bostins at each angel of the fort for its protection, made of same material, and to these Block Houses people often repaired for their protection and not infrequently were farm houses pickled in this manner. The house of Lewis Deweez at the mouth of Cedar Creek, and the house of Conrod Sailors one mile farther down were protected in this manner."

In 1811, he was on the 1st Franklin Co. Grand Jury. In 1816, Conrad was a major of militia in 6th Brigade 3rd Division, where Jacob Sailor was a captain. In 1817, Conrad was Justice of Peace for Franklin Co. IN, and he represented Franklin Co. in legislature 1818 and 1820.

Elijah Hackleman, on the 4 families of Tyner, Hackleman, Osborn, and Sailors:
"On the 18th of March 1802, the families of William Tyner and Abraham Hackleman became brothers-in-law for each married the other's sister. They then started by packhorse to the new country of Kentucky, being the first of the four families to leave the neighborhood in the Abbeville District.
.....They came the immigrant route over Clinchhuts, past the crab orchards to Georgetown, Scott County, Kentucky. After a journey of five long weeks they stopped to make that country their home, but William Tyner and family soon moved to Ohio where he organized and established the first Baptist church in that state, their next move was to Brookville, Indiana. They joined the Baptist Church there, build in 1812, three miles from town.
.....They spent the remainder of their lives there and were buried in the churchyard...that cemetery was eventually abandoned and many bodies were removed to Brookville Cemetery but a monument still stands to mark the graves of William Tyner and wife.

22. MARGARET HACKLEMAN (JOHAN JACOB, MARY ELIZABETH SAILORS, ABRAM) was born November 17, 1781 in King's Mountain, Lincoln, North Carolina, and died February 11, 1842 in Rush County, Indiana. She met (1) HENRY LINES in South Carolina, son of HENRY LINES. He was born Abt. 1773 in South Carolina?, and died August 14, 1837 in Rush County, Indiana. She married (2) CORNELIUS CUMMINS July 16, 1836 in Rush County, Indiana. He died Abt. 1837.

Notes for HENRY LINES:
1807 Henry moved to White Water, Indiana. 1821 he moved to Rush County, Indiana. Early January of 1836, Henry Lines (b. 1773), reportedly drunk, went on horseback to Brookville, Indiana, but his horse was frightened as he left the mill at the crossing at Old Sommersell and threw him. Henry drowned. Will mentions Abner, Charity, Conrad, Edward, Elizabeth, Fanny, Michael, Thomas, Sarah, Riller, and Polly lines. (7201906 97 and 81)

The Probate record for Henry Lines in Rush Co. covers 5 years. It includes the remarriage of the widow, Margaret (Hackleman) Lines, the list of Lines children and their married names, and Daniel Kyger's guardianship for Lines granddaughter. The inventory and sale of the household goods, the many IOUs used for payment when banks were not available. A great picture of the time frame in Rush Co., IN.

9-3-98
Have a Henry Lines, born about 1773. He married a Margaret Hackleman. Only show his father, John J. Lines Jr. born around 1747 Abbeville District, North Carolina. emailing you because of dates, I am having a hard time with this linage.

Seeking info on Thomas FOWLER(American Native) m. c. Jan1867 in Sparta to Elizabeth Ann SAYLORS.Elizabeth was b.c.1833 d.c.1880. Elizabeth SAYLORS parents were Fredrick SAYLORS b.c.1798 and Elizabeth Betsy Ann WILLIAMS.Elizabeth SAYLORS is in 1879 cn.p#368 as head of household. Why were the women that married Indians named Head of house and not the Indian man? Did it have something to do with not being a citizen?

Notes for WILLIAM SIMPSON SAILORS:
The Rice cemetery also includes the Howell and Saylors cemeteries, and is located just across the Putnam/White County line from Burgess Falls State Park. The following list of those buried there was compiled in 1983 by Mrs. Nancy Massa Goolsby and her daughter, Mrs. Betty Goolsby Doyle. Betty Doyle provided this compilation to the author in 1994. After much careful and painstaking research, the data was updated, and is herein presented. This cemetery record is most valuable as many of the monuments identified in 1983 are no longer there, having been removed by a vandal. It is rumored that the markers were removed "to make it easier to mow". Removing and / or destroying grave monuments is a felony. It is not known if the creature responsible for this reprehensible act was ever prosecuted. He should be - to the fullest extent of the law.

Dear Jean Leavell,
Thank you so much for your message board response. I would love to get any information about the Sailors and Lines ancestries. John E. was my great-grandfather, about whom my family knew nothing until I started digging, but only recently got as far as his father and mother in the 1850 census. John died in 1902 in Converse IN, apparently in unhappy circumstances, and his daughter Iva, my grandmother, died in 1904 at a young age, my mother was only about 7. John's son Ova, was a bricklayer like his grandfather, William. Thanks in advance for anything you can tell me.

Notes for THOMAS PUGH:
Was listed as a merchant in the 1850 Rush County, Indiana census. Was later listed in the History of Rush County as a "Hatter". A Thomas Pugh and Nehemiah Hayden of Indianapolis formed a bank in 1852 in Rushville, Indiana. Probate Court Book # 8, page 365, Recorders Office, Rush County Courthouse.
-----------------------------------
In the 1860 census in Rushville, Indiana he is listed living with wife Rebecca, son Rue (22) , and young Elbert Hubbard (10). Leah Pugh Hubbard died in 1854 and Asheal Hubbard was off so mewhere.
-----------------------------------
A copy of his obituary from Roberta Pugh in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. There is a Rantoul, Kansas west of Paola. There is no date on the obituary or on his photograph in the possession of Roberta Pugh.
------------------------------
Thos. Pugh died at his house in Rantoul Monday, at the age of 76 years, of old age. Mr. Pugh was born in Waynesville, Ohio and has been a resident of Kansas for two years. The remains were interred in the Paola Cemetery Tuesday.
---------------------------------
In the genealogy library in Albuquerque is a listing of pensioners from the Mexican America n War, the same one Oliver M. Pugh served in. The following listing was found: S-21383 Pugh T homas H. See Thomas H Kennady Under Thomas H. Kennady was found: S-21383 Kennady, Thomas H . KY/ "H" 3 IN Vols - 1887 Mar 18 alias - Thomas H. Pugh Translated, it means company H , 3rd Indiana Volunteers. Did he serve or was he recruited in Kentucky? What was the name Ke nnady about? If he was 60 in 1887 that would put his birth in 1827...about right for Oliver a nd Lot as brothers.
---------------------------------------
His gravestone in Paola Kansas, Oakgrove section, Lot # 280 Reads: Thomas Pugh Died Sept. 1 0 1889 (could be 1888) 77yrs 4mo 23days That would make his birth date 18 April 1812, and abo ut age 35 in 1847 when the Mexican American war started. He was married to his second wife by then with a bunch of kids. It is unlikely that the Thomas Pugh in the military records is the same. The information on his marriages came from marriage and death records in the Rush ville, Indiana library.
